¨I work with a visual language of lines, dashes, dots to create works that read as mysterious coded systems. Some works read almost as topographical or astronomical maps, while others read as keys of symbols, arranged and cate- gorised. “ The work inspires close inspection, and efforts to decode and unlock the hidden languages are irresistible.”

Lee Jiyen's “River Flows In You Pt. 2” is currently on display at “Womad Code: The Eye of Korean Women Artists” at the Espace Louis Vuitton in Tsim Sha Tsui.

The bird’s eye view transforms anonymous pedestrians into musical notes. People in the scene, totally unaware of being watched, march up and down the stairs creating dynamic patterns that resemble musical notes. The accumulation of different times and angles articulates time-based narrative which leads the viewer to sense the hidden music in our monotonous daily routine.

Denis Rouvre’s portrait of Toku Konno, Low Tide: Japan in Chaos series, 2011. “Low Tide complète un triptyque sur le Japon composé de la série Cosplays et Sumo. La ligne conductrice de l’artiste interpelle : dignité et résistance. Ce qui passionne Denis Rouvre, c’est l’individu comme un héros contemporain. L’individu dans sa solitude existentialiste, sa résistance face à l’adversité, sa façon de rester debout envers et contre tout. ”

digital hybrid from drawing (graphite/carbon on paper)

'Below the level of the musical note lies the realm of microsound, of sound particles lasting less than one-tenth of a second. Recent technological advances allow us to probe and manipulate these pinpoints of sound, dissolving the traditional building blocks of music—notes and their intervals—into a more fluid and supple medium. The sensations of point, pulse (series of points), line (tone), and surface (texture) emerge as particle density increases. Sounds coalesce, evaporate, and mutate into other sounds.' Curtis Roads 'Microsound'.

“McNally’s cartographies are, to use a characterisation of Proust’s, (...) 'real without being actual, ideal without being abstract.' As such, they allow us to see that the attempt to think beyond representation to reconcile process, genesis and structure is not merely an abstract intellectual possibility, but a concrete, coherent and above all real project, productive of works of both philosophical and aesthetic merit. “
